Chris Jerdonek commented on LOG4NET-136: ---------------------------------------- I agree that string parsing is better. Would "RemoveSystemPrefix=true" be the first use of such a syntax in a log4net configuration, or are there already options like that? It seems like a reasonable option. If such a syntax is allowed, then perhaps the existing %logger pattern could be used instead. There are already many similar pattern names: c, C, class, logger, type. It could recognize a parameter like "GenericTypeFormat=CS". Is the verboseness issue already an issue, since the version information etc is already left off for non-generic types? The converter should also handle generic type names with unspecified type parameters. These can arise, for example, as discussed here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-157 I believe another way to get the type with unspecified parameters is as follows: if (type.IsGenericType) { genericType = type.GetGenericTypeDefinition(); } > logger conversionPattern restriction doesn't work correctly for Generic > classes > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4NET-136 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-136 > Project: Log4net > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.2.10 > Environment: Windows 2000 Professional, .NET Framework 2.0 > Reporter: Tom Crossland > Assignee: Ron Grabowski > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.2.11 > > Attachments: ConsoleApplication3-GenericPrettyPrinter.zip > > > <conversionPattern value="%date %-5level %logger{1} - %message%newline"/> > Using the above conversion pattern for a logger of a Generic class (i.e. > My.System.MyClass<My.System.MyObject>) will result in the following log > output: > 2008-01-17 21:54:48,968 INFO 0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null]] - My > error message > Obviously, in this case it's not appropriate to just take the portion of the > class name after the last '.' character. > Thanks -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
